The LiLo Show: Questionable Redemption is coming to America’s living rooms very soon. Premiering on March 9, the show chronicles the actress-turned-reality-star’s life after rehab.
Here’s all you need to know about the drama-filled project.
1. Oprah Paid Lohan $2 Million for It
After conducting a tell-all interview in August with the starlet, Winfrey offered Lohan a hefty sum for the show. The Daily News reported on an advanced clip that was released from the show. In it, Oprah said, “This is just what everyone warned me would happen (working with her). And it is.” After Lohan didn’t come to scheduled filming, Winfrey said, “My truth is, I really do want you to win … but if that isn’t what you want, I’m okay with that. I will tell these guys to pack up and leave today.”
TMZ reported that Oprah herself went to Lindsay’s mother Dina’s house on Long Island to confront Lindsay on her commitment to the project.
2. It’s Being Directed by an Emmy Nominee
